You can even start selling coffee there, while you're at it.

Funny thing is that this textbook can be easily found on LibGen. I do not know a lot about LLM datasets, but they probably include books from these shadow libraries, right ?

I agree. On reading 'brutalist', I thought it would be grey, or purely black and white, more "concrete" and slightly depressing.

Maybe article should link directly to that. I'm all for quirky and interesting design, unlike some in these parts, but it is too glitchy and uncomfortable for me.

Impressive and important work. I was wondering if there ever was a web version of this. Archived site mentions something, but I'm not sure if it was ever done. Using standalone application always feels like unnecessary friction to me. I'm out of my depth here, but since models are available, is it possible to just render them in WebGL or something like that. Would that be technically difficult ?

Their kit is 99 dollars, but how expensive is the actual DNA testing nowadays ? It's my understanding from this [0] video that it is approximately 1000 dollars for the whole genome, but 23&Me sequence only a tiny portion of the genome (above video mentions 500 000 bases out of 6 billion total bases of human genome), and that sequencer processes thousands of samples in parallel, so there is some economy of scale factors. It is sometimes very confusing how all these tech/techish companies have such bad financials.

In short, 72–76% of the world’s industrial fishing, and 21–30% of transport and energy, vessel activity are missing from public tracking systems. The actual article from Nature, in open access: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-023-06825-8

Great! Nice design as well. There were so many great blogs on that post, and scrolling 1000 comments got a bit tedious.

Made me want to create my own blog, I'll see what I can come up with. I'll try to submit PR when I do. Love taylor.town as well!
